Netflix #blackAF

[Mister]

We shit on those white shows as well, just because a show is black doesn't keep it from being criticized

How about waiting to actually watch it to criticize it?

I've already seen these characters to know how they will be

 

[Inori]

i dont watch law n order sooo

fair enough.

fair enough.

Does representation mean shit to yall? If it does... even if you dont like the shows... yall cant appreciate the attempt being made to represent people that aren't typically represented to a wide audience on national tv?

Blackish - A middle/high middle class black family and their experiences
Grownish - A black youths experience in college
Mixedish - A black/white mixed families experience
Oldish(and im just assuming here since its not out yet) - the experiences of black baby boomers in this current climate

and ALL of these shows have featured black folks across the spectrum of all shades, rich, poor, all sorts of sexualities...

but yall hate on it. Make it make sense

This is BS and you know it. But go ahead and hate for hate's sake. There are too many other black shows...

 

[Okaay]

Sounds wack, but also sounds like more black people getting opportunities. I hope it finds an audience.

Also I bet Tyler Perry convinced him he didn’t have enough “Ishes”

 

[IP360]

Ain't no "ish" about that old

Hilarity will ensue

 

[IP360]

fair enough.

[keemz]

Good it was trashaf

 

[Inori]

So they're going the movie(s) route instead of a TV show

 

[illestni99ainne]

It was like Blackish TVMA without any of the charm. Shit was trash

Kenya Barris’ semi-autobiographical Netflix comedy — which received a Season 2 pickup exactly one year ago today — will no longer return in its current form. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the semi-autobiographical sitcom is being redeveloped as a potential film franchise at the streaming giant, á la National Lampoon’s Vacation. Brazil and Mexico-set installments are reportedly in early development. (TVLine has reached out to Netflix for a comment.)

I enjoyed the show. I don't know about a movie series though.

 

[Race Jones]

the majority of his shows are trash

 

[Disanthrope]

I only like the og blackish first few seasons

 

[Inori]

Black-Ish is still dope imo.. Grown-Ish is decent.. never got into Mixed-Ish... BlackAF was meh. Ida checked it if they got a second season tho

 

[Inori]

[Disanthrope]

...i asked about the caption but thanks man lol

 

[Disanthrope]

...i asked about the caption but thanks man lol

I mean he pullin the tear a brotha down card but nobody is canceling his platform, we just want something new. Also, every version of his ish franchise waters down blackness which isn't even my/ people's beef, its the redundancy of it all

Do something new, stop milkin the same cow. Do something NEW nigga
